Paul Mandelt is an Australian singer-songwriter and guitarist who specialises in blues & rock, adult contemporary and country music.

Paul takes musical influence from classic English bands such as The Who, Led Zeppelin, Thin Lizzy, Pink Floyd, The Stray Cats and Dire Straits as well as influential blues guitar players and virtuso instrumentalists.  

After growing up in Perth and being exposed to its healthy live music scene and being further influenced by its Australian artists, Paul gained a valuable guitar teacher and mentor, an American living in Perth at the time, by the name of John Heussenstamm. John mentored Paul by showing him around  Perth’s recording studios, inviting him to recording sessions and gigs, which fostered Paul’s enthusiasm and raw talent, impacting him heavily at a young age.

Paul formed and fronted an original band Dead Flowers and played at venues/festivals across Perth and released two self-titled EP’s. Paul also played guitar for Perth singer-songwriter Brett Keyser (Innocent Bystanders) which was an exciting early collaboration given that Heussenstamm had played guitar on Brett’s album.

Paul continues to play solo residencies across Perth featuring originals and classic covers.
